A group of scientists have created Mindy - the girl who represents the future of human beings - to make terrible predictions about how the human body will continue to evolve over a process that lasts millions of years.
study discovery creates an amazing portrait of people in the future based on some scientists’ analysis of how our bodies will evolve to better adapt to the modern way of life that is increasingly dependent on technology.
According to a survey in the United States, modern humans are associated with the life of internet-connected devices for about 7 hours a day, which is expected to affect evolution—looking for food in a different way, survival has changed humans since the beginning.
Mindy - A future human image constructed by scientists based on the situations facing human survival
1. Hunchback
According to a research project commissioned by TollFreeForwarding.com, after millions of years of evolution to straighten our spine, we may gradually hunchback to create a girl with a future shape “Mindy”.
The reason is that work and entertainment require us to bend over more frequently: using computers, smartphones...stretching our necks, causing our spine to lose balance. We now have back and neck pain, but the neck muscles will likely evolve to help us stop pain one day. Instead, it is a physiologically more bent position, but has better head support.
2. Hand "reverse evolution"
Hand begins to show the shape of a beast lifting its claws, accompanied by the physiological position of the elbow bent 90 degrees, which may be the future human arms. In order to better adapt to the computer typing posture, brush your smartphone. . No more pain or fatigue. According to Dr. Nikola Djordjevic of Med Alert Help, this is to adapt and gradually eliminate the tension of uncomfortable hands when you hold your phone a lot and scroll the screen.
For the elbow, tension on the ft nerve extending along the medial groove of the elbow often results in numbness of the ring and pinky fingers - a common problem for office staff - will gradually be eliminated through evolution. By evolving it becomes a physiological position.
3. Add eyelids
According to Dr. Kasun Ratnayake of the University of Toledo, Mindy also has a peculiar eye with a second eyelid, which has evolved to better protect the eyes from screen blue light . The “high doses” of blue light we are exposed to every day has been shown to reduce sleep quality, affect vision and cause stress.
4. "Technology Neck" and Little Head
Mindy's neck is also very strong, which can limit health problems caused by poor neck posture when using too many technologies. The skull is also thicker to protect people from harmful waves from smartphones and other devices.
In addition, studies have shown that a sedentary lifestyle reduces brain capacity, which scientists have added to Mindy. This is not good because people are more likely to have mental health problems, including more prone to anxiety disorders and depression .
TollFreeForwarding.com project leader Jayson O'Brieb said: "Technology gives us a lot. Convenience, connectivity, entertainment, etc. But there are trade-offs."
